How to draw “section-size” arrows using tikz
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
2
I searched for problems like this, but couldn't find any approach. Then, I don't believe this is a duplicated question.
The question is: how to draw section-size arrow marks (like the one shown in the picture) using tikz.

Sorry, what does section-sized mean? Trydocumentclass[tikz,border=3.14mm]standalone begindocument begintikzpicture node (tmp) $phi$; draw (tmp.north east) -- ++ (-3,0); draw (tmp.south east) -- ++ (-3,0); draw[<-] (tmp.north) -- ++ (0,0.5); draw[<-] (tmp.south) -- ++ (0,-0.5); endtikzpicture enddocument.

Hi @marmot. I mean that I would like to draw those couple of arrows that point to each other indicating the size of a section (because is generally used to point diameter of pipes, etc). I know how to draw them separately... but is there a way to draw at once using a simple code?

I guess I got most confused by the fact that section has several meanings. So you are talking about diameters, and not the things that come with thesectioncommand, right?

tikz-dimline was designed for this pourpose. Following code is an example from its documentation.
documentclass[tikz, border=2mm]standalone
usepackagetikz-dimline
begindocument
begintikzpicture[scale=0.5]
draw[help lines] (-1,-1) grid (4,7);
draw (0,0) -- (0,4) -- (.5,4) -- (.5,5) -- (1.,5) -- (1.,4) -- (1.5,4) -- (1.5,0)
-- cycle;
dimline[color=blue,
extension start length=-0.25, extension end length=-0.25](2.75,0)(2.75,4)4.0;
dimline[color=red,
line style=arrows=dimline reverse-dimline reverse,
label style=above=0.8ex,font=tiny,
extension start length=1,

An other approach using the To path operation :
documentclass[border=5mm,tikz]standalone
usetikzlibraryarrows.meta,calc
tikzset
diameter/.style=to path=,
execute at end to=
draw[Stealth-](tikztostart)--($(tikztostart)!-0.5cm!(tikztotarget)$);
draw[Stealth-](tikztotarget)--($(tikztotarget)!-0.5cm!(tikztostart)$);
path (tikztostart)--(tikztotarget) tikztonodes;
,
begindocument
begintikzpicture
draw(0,0)--(2,0);
draw(0,1)--(2,1);
path[diameter] (0.5,0)to node(phi)(1,1);
path[diameter] (1.5,0)to node(phi)(1.5,1);
endtikzpicture
